Help…
I need some help with identifying the typeface used in the logo for the film Singles. It's for a tattoo so the closest I can get to it would be great.
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Today has been all about M.A.C Cosmetics, especially the launch of their Hello Kitty range. However as a cat owner I'm wondering how many takes it took them to get the cat in the video to walk on the paths. No cat would ever do that in one take. 
I do love M.A.C. make up however and it's mostly what I use nowadays. It's not tested on animals (I wouldn't use it otherwise) and I really like their "Back 2 M.A.C" scheme. I've had freebies from it in the past and I must have at least another 2 lipsticks worth of empties to take back. Methinks I need to try and aquire some Hello Kitty make up at some point soon.
Haute Macabre is a totally inspiring blog that's made me want to pick my jaw off the floor on the few occasions that I've read it too. I need to thank the ladies behind it for showing me such delights as this DIY shirt which I'm dying to have a crack at and also this purse. It's currently one of my favourite blogs on the internet.
And finally. The wait is over. Watchmen has finally been released at the cinemas. I made a vow a few weeks ago saying that if this film was a dissappointment then that was "graphic novels turned films" and I over with for good. I've got my cinema ticket booked for the first showing. I'm a big Alan Moore fan so I dearly hope I'll not be disappointed. The fickle silver screen has let me down a few times in the past, mostly because of Halle Berry actually! To this day I still reckon Grace Jones would have made a much better Storm (X-Men) and don't even get me started on Catwoman. They were the two comics I read religiously as a kid (I had subscriptions at Forbidden Planet and everything).
Photoshopped Subway Ad’s…
I stumbled upon this just now and I must say I think it's awesome. My dissertation was on counter culture becoming consumer culture so anything related to this sparks my interest. It's probably one of the reasons I find the film "Josie and The Pussycats" so amusing.

I've read magazines such as Adbusters etc. for years and they've really opened my eyes to the differences the Joe Bloggs and Jane Doe's of the world can make. If you find a copy on your travels I really do urge you to flick through it and even buy it if you can be bothered. It's a bit hit and miss as to how often I can buy it here in Sunderland however. I found issues in a random off license next to my parents house and thats it. The only other place I know I could buy it from is Borders but the nearest one to me again is in north tyneside.
One of my resolutions this year is that I'm trying to take part in "The 365 Project" which basically means that I have to "take a photo every day for the whole of 2009". So far it's acted like a visual diary for me. It's a good way to remember to carry my compact digital camera around with me everywhere I go as well (a habit I've tried to do for ages).
In other news, I've been busy so far this year being ill, drawing and doing some freelance work. No rest for the wicked. I also no longer work at Triplesix but I'm still getting inked there a plenty. I was lucky enough to get a tattoo appointment with Xam in March when he comes up here to do a guest spot (it's probably going to be the only "traditional" style tattoo I'll ever own) so I'm looking forward to that even though I haven't enjoyed the healing process that comes alongside getting leg tattoos at all. It's been that bad I've started to take daily zinc supplements as well as my usual muItivitamins in attempts to get my body to heal quicker. I must be crazy.
On a final note I hope Steve Jobs gets well soon. Bless his cottons.
Hello.
